ROUTE IT

RouteIT allows entities and companies to optimise their logistics operations based on a pre-set plan. RouteIT provides customers with a mechanism that will take as input a list of deliveries and pickups and, based on the available resources and predefined rules, generates a series of optimised routes.

RouteIT includes a configurable Routing Engine capable of generating optimised routes while handling a variety of constraints such as TIME delivery and collection time-windows, client stop times, maximum driving time, maximum duty time and break times, maximum driving distance, total vehicle payloads, total vehicle volume, maximum client stops within route, as well as maximum number of packages.

RouteIT is deployed as a background process and also supports a Graphical User Interface which enables customers to view and set configuration parameters. This GUI also includes route visualisation facilities. It also provides basic routing engine calibration data for every depot (branch or storehouse – a logistics node) being used which is derived from the analyses of each depot’s operation over a period of time.
